From. Please recognize that we didnt get here you know, from anybodys particular choice or what has happened, but everything evolves. If you have got an iphone, you are constantly getting updates and using windows if you are using a computer, updates, things have to constantly change to keep pace with progress. So its important that well reevaluate the Transportation System and the best possible outcomes we can get is when they are informed by people like you, who are experienced and are taking transit on a regular basis. We need to make sure that we have all of the perspectives in consideration. I really want to suggest that staff do a good job of conveying the information. I really liked what director heinicke said, understanding why this is happening. When you are conveying information, make sure that people do understand the situation that we are in, and why its happening.

Item 12, approving the conceptual trafficcoaxing project for the dewey boulevard. We have a brief overview, and there is a wellwritten staff report explaining what we are proposing and we have gotten a lot of written feedback on this. Good afternoon. Good afternoon. Thank you, director reiskin and directors.

And then again in the fall of 2013, as a followup, after the development of the proposal. The project area encompasss about 1600 households, whether they by apartments or stand alone houses.

Now mind you this is in front of my house dont park here, go down the street and there is a parking place down the street that its easier that i can get by.
